Why Africa?

African students remain passionately interested in pursuing their graduate degrees in the United States. African universities remain under-funded, short on state-of-the-art facilities and have capacity that remains inadequate to accommodate the number of qualified students who are pursuing graduate study. US universities have not been purposeful in their recruitment efforts in Africa resulting in a significant loss in “market share” to Great Britain, Canada, New Zealand, India and Australia.

Through our extensive relationships with educational advisers, U.S. Embassy staff and the Foreign Commercial Service, we know how to target marketing efforts to attract an excellent number of highly qualified candidates to our University Fairs. The Linden Graduate Tour to Africa will also provide networking opportunities with academics, business leaders and government officials who can provide access to the most qualified candidates.
